December 1947 Tens of Jews Killed and Wounded in Aden

Following the U. N. Partition Resolution, the Jews of Aden City were attacked and a reign of terror instituted.  Seventy-six Jews were killed and seventy-eight wounded.  Two thirds of the Jewsih sectons of the city were burned and looted.  Fifteen hundred Jews fled to safety in a former Italian prisoner of war camp outside of Aden City.  Order was restored only after British reinforcements were brought in from the Canal Zone.
